SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS<br />
Amperage Draw<br />
Plug-Type<br />
The Model G0550/G0551 motor is wired to operate<br />
at 220V only. The planer motors draw the following<br />
amperage:<br />
Amperage Draw<br />
G0550 2 HP..........................................12 Amps<br />
G0551 3 HP..........................................18 Amps<br />
We recommend using a NEMA-style 6-15 plug<br />
and outlet with the G0550 as shown in Figure 1a<br />
and an L6-20 plug and outlet for the G0551 as<br />
shown in Figure 1b. You may also “hard-wire”<br />
the planer directly to your panel, provided you<br />
place a disconnect near the machine. Check the<br />
electrical codes in your area for specifics on<br />
wiring requirements.<br />
Circuit Breaker<br />
Use the following guidelines when choosing a circuit<br />
breaker (circuit breakers rated any higher are<br />
not adequate to protect the circuit):<br />
Circuit Breaker<br />
G0550 ........................................15 Amp, 2 Pole<br />
G0551 ........................................20 Amp, 2 Pole<br />
